Antimicrobial Disposition During Pediatric Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy Using an Ex Vivo Model
Conclusions: Careful consideration of drug-circuit interactions during continuous renal replacement therapy is essential for appropriate drug dosing in critically ill children. Antimicrobials have unique adsorption and clearance profiles during continuous renal replacement therapy, and this knowledge is important to optimize antimicrobial therapy.

Invasive candidiasis: Risk factor for mortality in a pediatric tertiary care hospital in south of Brazil
Conclusion: Data from this study suggest that biofilm formation by Candida sp. is associated with increased mortality, and this is the first study to correlate the male sex and cardiological disease as risk factors for death in pediatric IC patients.

The European Society for Paediatric Nephrology study of pediatric renal care in Europe: comparative analysis 1998 –2017
ConclusionsThe 20-year follow-up analysis of pediatric renal care services in European countries revealed that pediatric nephrology has become a well-established subspecialty in pediatrics and nephrology in 2017. The ESPN will continue its efforts to further improve pediatric renal care for European children by harmonizing remaining disparities of renal care services.

The Very Elderly Admitted to ICU: A Quality Finish?*
Conclusions: In this multicenter study, one third of very elderly ICU patients died in hospital, many after a prolonged ICU stay while continuing to receive aggressive life-sustaining interventions. These findings raise questions about the use of critical care at the end of life for the very elderly.

Renal replacement therapy in adult and pediatric intensive care: Recommendations by an expert panel from the French Intensive Care Society (SRLF) with the French Society of Anesthesia Intensive Care (SFAR) French Group for Pediatric Intensive Care Emergencies (GFRUP) the French Dialysis Society (SFD)
We present herein recommendations for the use of RRT in adult and pediatric intensive care developed with the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system by an expert group of French Intensive Care Society (SRLF), with the participation of the French Society of Anesthesia and Intensive Care (SFAR), the French Group for Pediatric Intensive Care and Emergencies (GFRUP), and the French Dialysis Society (SFD). The recommendations cover 4 fields: criteria for RRT initiation, technical aspects (access routes, membranes, anticoagulation, reverse osmosis water), practical aspects (choice of th...

Serial Measurement of Cell-cycle Arrest Biomarkers TIMP-2 •IGFBP7 and Risk for Progression to Death, Dialysis or Severe Acute Kidney Injury in Patients with Septic Shock.
CONCLUSIONS: Changes in urinary [TIMP-2]•[IGFBP7] following initial fluid resuscitation identify sepsis patients with differing risk for progression of AKI. Clinical trial registration available at www.clinicaltrials.gov, ID: NCT00510835. PMID: 32584598 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Impact of Presenting Rhythm on Short- and Long-Term Neurologic Outcome in Comatose Survivors of Cardiac Arrest Treated With Therapeutic Hypothermia*
Conclusions: These data indicate an association between initial nonshockable rhythm and significantly worse short- and long-term outcomes in patients treated with mild therapeutic hypothermia. Among survivors, neurologic status significantly improved over time for all patients and shockable rhythm patients and tended to improve over time for the small number of nonshockable rhythm patients who survived beyond hospitalization. No significant interaction between changes in neurologic status over time and presenting rhythm was seen.

Differences in Utilization of Life Support and End-of-Life Care for Medical ICU Patients With Versus Without Cancer
Conclusions: Among patients dying in the medical ICU, the diagnosis of active cancer influences the intensity of life support utilization and the quality of end-of-life care. Patients with active cancer use less life support and may receive better end-of-life care than similar patients without cancer. These differences are likely due to biases or misunderstandings about the trajectory of advanced nonmalignant disease among patients, families, and perhaps providers.

Heparin-Free Prolonged Intermittent Hemodialysis Using Calcium-Free Citrate Dialysate in Critically Ill Patients
Conclusions: Conclusions:Dialysis anticoagulation with calcium-free citrate-containing dialysate and calcium reinjection according to ionic dialysance is an easy-to-use, efficient, and inexpensive form of heparin-free regional anticoagulation. It allows prolonged hemodialysis sessions in critically ill patients without the need to systemically monitor ionized calcium. Furthermore, sessions can be safely extended according to the hemodynamic tolerance to ensure an adequate dose of dialysis and a negative water balance, a major point in patients with severe acute kidney disease.

The use of CRRT in ECMO patients
Publication date: Available online 15 December 2018Source: The Egyptian Journal of Critical Care MedicineAuthor(s): Marlice Van DykAbstractExtracorporeal life support (ECLS) is an effective therapy used for patients who are severely hypoxic as well as those with cardiogenic shock. Many of these patients require continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) as they are too unstable for intermittent haemodialysis. Prognosis of patients who are on ECMO tends to do worse if they develop acute renal failure during the ECMO run resulting in the requirement for dialysis. According to the ELSO registry, the mortality of patients req...

Determining the Association Between End-of-Life Care Resources and Patient Outcomes in Pennsylvania ICUs*
Conclusions: ICU-based end-of-life care resources do not appear to change mortality but are associated with increased hospice utilization. Given that this finding was not confirmed by the instrumental variable analysis, future studies should attempt to verify this finding, and identify specific resources or processes of care that impact the care of ICU patients at the end of life.

Characterizing the Patients, Hospitals, and Data Quality of the eICU Collaborative Research Database*
Conclusions: Data in the eICU Collaborative Research Database are for the most part complete and plausible. Some ambiguity exists in determining which encounters are associated with various interventions, most notably mechanical ventilation. Caution is warranted in extrapolating findings from the eICU Collaborative Research Database to larger ICUs with higher acuity.

Use of Furosemide and Chlorothiazide Combination Continuous Infusion in Furosemide-Refractory Patients in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit: A Retrospective Cohort Study
ConclusionsFCCCI resulted in a significant improvement in diuresis with achievement of negative fluid balance in pediatric ICU patients. FCCCI is a reasonable approach to aggressive diuresis in the pediatric patient, particularly in patients with limited access. Serum potassium should be routinely monitored during such therapy.
